And then it would start all over again.

u know. the whole " omgawd hi! i nv knew you were from my course! what's your name?" thing that people do at orientation while they smile and appear nice so they can mentally lay some ground work on member selection of the new semester's project work members. God the awful tedium of it all. its a dirty job. nobody likes it. but everyone's got to do it.

I am refering to the new class arrangement thing of course. illusive and all as it may be now seeing that school's starting in a week but the people at the management are still shaking their legs refusing to give us any news of the new time table or anyth much really.

why the school is paying them slackers is beyond me.

but i have decided. If there is an orientation for the new class thing this time, and trust me honey, there probably would be ( look at them counseller faces, they wouldnt miss a chance) ,I wont be there to schmooze this time.

not like i was there during the course orientation of course. I had better things to do.

like pick at my toenail.

So i may seem anti-social and all ( i probably am anyway) but hey, I hadnt been too crazy about the idea of playing treasure hunt in school like i had when i was about, oooh 5 and screaming myself hoarse when i have to do that in 2 years when i enter the army anyway, so why the hell should i put myself through all that 2 yrs in advance?

hey, even keith hadnt attended the main compulsory orientation, the one even i had attended ( daft, thats what i am) and it certainly hadnt did him much harm.

not much anyway, apart from being shot daggers 4 ways during project work.

but that wouldnt happen to me. I mean, im nice. see. nice big smile ( bogus of course, but so?), round trusting face and nice funny repartees in comebacks. you wldnt catch me seating at the first row during lectures alone, no sireee!

but its so irritating in a way that i can be the smug boy right now, but neverthelesss when the week looms closer to its end i will undoubtly become a sack of nerves. it always happens. bloody hell.

I say its in the genes.

ah well.

at least this will come in handy as a ready made excuse to get 40 bucks from my mom to but that pair of distressed jeans from revoltage. hey, we always have to make a good impression dont we.

and talking about clothes, i dont think i will be eating vv much next semester. in fact, nt very much for the next 2 and a half years. no thxs to the bloody home raids tts been going on with illegal music downloads.

i was calculating my monthly allowance just now, and previously i could barely get buy feeding, transporting myself from 1 place to another and still supporting my shopping habit with the meagre allowance i was getting.

so now if i still want nice songs in my Zen V Plus and still be able to do all the stuff as mentioned above, i realised i have to either sacrifice my shopping habits, or stop feeding myself. just bloody because i had to buy music albums from now on.

there wasnt much choice to begin really. of course i had to buy clothes! so it just meant that i wldnt be eating vv much for the next 2.5 yrs as said above.

why the hell do ppl dwnload in the 1st place anway? its because there arent enough nice tracks in albums for ppl to think its worth buying. so if music companies actually make artistes produce nicer stuff instead of 80 percent thrash on albums, maybe the police wldnt have to do all these home raids.

and i wldnt have to give up eating, for that matter.

well, the only consolation? i would be able to fit into any clothes i want by the time term ends, cause i wld be so bloody skinny by the end of it, i wld give nicole ritchie a run for her money.

oh bother!
